3480 Media Exchange Platform: The Multiple Service Platform

High Density, High Video Quality Professional Encoder

Built on modern technology and leveraging years of experience in 1-RU and modular real-time compression and video technology, the 3480 encoder series takes video quality in H.264 and MPEG-2 compression to a whole new level with no compromises on video quality and density.

The 3480 encoder series is built on a highly flexible platform that allows the core video processing engine to change in a factory-installed modular fashion to maintain your investment well into the future. Hybrid hardware/software architecture is used to optimize flexibility and performance and density.

The 3480 encoder platform is flexible enough to house both HD and SD with SDI inputs, as well as H.264 and MPEG-2 video codecs, alongside a wide array of audio processing technologies and codecs, including integrated IntelliGain real-time loudness measurement and correction technology. Channel configurations include up to four SD (in either H.264 or MPEG-2), and up to four HD signals (720p or 1080i, or a mix). When coupled with the 3480 STC (stat mux controller), the 3480 encoder channels participate in real-time stat mux pools, both in MPEG-2 and H.264 to produce variable bitrate streams.
